ICharacterProperties.FontSize Property

Returns the font size of characters.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

#Declaration

C#
float? FontSize { get; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Nullable<Single>

The font size in points or null if at least two different characters have different font sizes.

#Remarks

A cell stores its text formatting settings in the CharacterProperties property. Call the cell’s ChangePropertiesAsync method to change the font size of all cell characters.

The following example sets the font size to 16 for all characters in a table:

Razor
<DxRichEdit @ref="richEdit" />

@code {
    DxRichEdit richEdit;

            catch (TaskCanceledException) { }
        await base.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender);
    }

    async Task InitializeDocument() {
    /* Surround the code that contains an asynchronous operation with a try-catch block to handle
    the OperationCanceledException. This exception is thrown when an asynchronous operation is canceled. */
        try {

            Console.WriteLine($"{nameof(OperationCanceledException)} thrown with message: {e.Message}");
        }
